Also, some people believe this car is like the second coming of you know who. They are setting themselves up for a major fall. Those who buy it because they want a quicker vert than the Grand Sport or they like the LOOK of a Z06 but are into verts are the people that I can relate to.
Those who buy it thinking they are getting Z06 performance in a vert or think they are going to make money on it, are completely out to lunch.
What Racer said ! And, in addition to that, GM is gonna throw rebate money at the new ones to help the dealers move the C6 off dealer lots. This alone will reduce the resale value of a used one.
Starting at $66,629!!! If you have a vette then it's $63,629!!! That is due to the $3k loyalty discount.
I've gotta say, it's tempting!
For sure, brand new 427's are going for 66-76k depending on options and Macmulkin has lots of them, knock at least 10k off for a low mileage used one right now and look for bigger discounts when the C7 arrives.
